pburrows Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 Dudes, I have a Tony Franklin Precision Bass which has the PJ configuration. I am considering putting in a Seymour Duncan QP as the neck pick up as I want a harder hitting sound. Is it possible to swap on the neck pick up and leave the bridge pick up as supplied? Are there any downsides to doing that? Cheers. Here's a pick of my bass for reference Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassalarky Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 Yes it is perfectly possible. The downside is that the balance between the two pickups may change. Could be better or worse but I suspect the QP will have a bit more output than a standard pickup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hooky_lowdown Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 What @Bassalarky said. The QP has a very high output, so if you use the stock jazz and QP together you'll notice a big drop in output from just the QP on its own. You're probably be best to match the QP P pickup with a bridge QP Jazz pickup. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
